guest: we have seen a different john boehner in the last four months is because he continually talks about what happens in the senate, rather than the house, is that he has lost control of his own caucus. we saw this during the fiscal cliff over the holidays where he could not even get his own caucus to support his proposal. he put his hands up and look for the senate for answers. host: are using all senate democrats are behind president's agenda? guest: not at all. different senators support different things and there certainly are some republican senators that will support these ideas. i would say it is interesting following the state of the union, john boehner did not want to talk about what the house to do. he just wanted to throw the ball over to the senate. host: chris edwards? guest: i would say americans are sick and tired of all of the dysfunction in washington. i'll give you one example of this, the sequester will hit the nation's aircraft control system. we do not need the federal government involved in air traffic control. canada has gone to a system where the privatized
